Fresh anchovies are fairly mild in taste, but seldom found in fishmongers or elsewhere. Anchovies in oil have been pre-filleted so can be eaten as they are. They’re salt-cured for six to nine months, before being plunged into oil. If you can stretch to it, it’s worth splashing out for cured anchovies in really good olive oil, as the quality varies wildly by price.
